IBM’s Data Server Provider for .NET Supports the Entity Framework

IBM has released the production version of its Data Server Provider for .NET including support for Microsoft’s Entity Framework allowing its users to create EDM schemas, and to execute EntitySQL and LINQ statements.

It's really embarrassing to see that IBM has again decided to put iSeries and zSeries on a different track. While all the other platforms and benefited from IBM's (poor) .NET efforts in the past they are doing so with this release. i/zSeries owners are forced yet again to purchase expensive DB2 Connect licenses (for proxy mode) to leverage their existing assets. No wonder that businesses consider migrating their data warehouses and BI applications to SQL Server. And so do we.
